selectively show wordpress posts based on category
- by Andy
Hi,
Currently I'm using the following code as part of sidebar code for Wordpress (the code works fine):
<ul class="linklist">
<?php $recentPosts = new WP_Query();
$recentPosts->query('showposts=12');
while ($recentPosts->have_posts()) : $recentPosts->the_post();
?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Link to <?php the_title();
?>">
<?php the_title();
?></a> </li>
<?php endwhile;?> </ul>
It shows the last 12 posts. But what I'm looking for is the following;
first check what category the current post (the post that is showing based on the permalink) belongs to, and then only list the latest posts that belong to that same category.
What should be edited? Thanks!
